Welcome to Administrative Rules
Overview
The Utah State Board of Education is tasked by the legislature to make administrative rules regarding various topics within education. These rules have the effect of law and govern many areas that impact all levels of the education community. On this page you will find all current rules in effect (see below), rules that are currently under Board review (see Rules in Process), rules that have been created or amended in the past (see Board Rule Records), rules considered in upcoming or past public hearings (see Public Hearings), documents included as part of a rule (see Documents Incorporated by Reference), information about the rulemaking process and a searchable rules document (see Resources). The infographic below provides an outline of the rulemaking process. Please contact the Policy and Law team with any questions.
